Paid Forum Posting
Some forum owners pay money to people for posting on their forums. These are mostly the forums that are quite new and need some posts to attract visitors or old forums that don't have much activity and need a new lease of life. Whatever is the case, if you have done forum posting before or can type in average English, you can give it a try. A few of the forum posting jobs require some prior knowledge of the topic/niche, the forum is based on. However, in most cases, even if you are not aware of the topic, you can do some research (on Google, etc.) and do the posting.
You are normally paid around 10 cents per post. You might find this a little less but its a sure-shot way of earning money. You can easily make a few dollars everyday and it can serve as a small but constant stream of confirmed online money. The word 'confirmed' has been used because there are some streams of money that pay well but you are not sure if you will earn everyday. For example - If you have a website and you display ads on your web pages to earn money, you can earn a lot if the visitors click on a few ads. But if your website is new and doesn't attract any traffic, your earnings will be nil.
However, forum posting can earn you some assured amount of money as the number of posts that you make depends on you. Of course, the owner of the forum can impose a limit on the number of posts that you can make in a day or in total. Place like Content sub-forum at Digital Point forums is a good point to meet forum owners that are looking for paid forum posters. The payment is normally through PayPal and the forum owners expect some minimum amount of posts before they can pay. Example - If they are paying you 10 cents/post, they will expect at least 10-20 posts (worth $1-$2) before you get paid.
At places like Digital Point forums, to get a forum posting job, you will have to reply to a thread started by some forum owner looking for posters. In the reply, you can state that you are interested in that particular forum posting job and you can do the work as per the conditions provided by the forum owner. However, you can also start your own thread and state that you are an experienced forum poster and are available for paid forum posting.
However, websites like Forums First work in a different manner. The forum owners contact Forums First and ask them to populate their forums with particular number of new threads and posts. If there are any new jobs added, you receive an email in your email account that you use to sign up with them. Also, when you login to your account at Forums First, you can see the posting jobs that are available at the particular time. You can see the link of the forum and the number of new threads and posts (reply to an existing thread) that are still required to be done. You can select the amount of new threads and posts that you are capable of posting before the deadline provided by that forum owner. There are many more sources where you can find a paid forum posting job. You can search Google or browse some big forums for that.
